April Wrap Up // 2023

April 30, 2023 ~ happiestwhenreading ~ Leave a comment

Every single month I think life is going to be a little bit slower than the one before...and every single month, I'M WRONG! 😂 April was no exception with a ton of out-of-state volleyball trips and in-state track meets. Also, there are a ton of end-of-the-school-year banquets...and suffice it to say, reading has been on … Continue reading April Wrap Up // 2023

Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld - I'm nervous to include this one, but I'm equally curious about the behind-the-scenes look at comedy writing on shows like SNL. Sittenfeld has worked for me in the past as well, so I will probably give this one a try. Publish date: April 4, 2023 The Cuban Heiress by … Continue reading Anticipated Reads // Q2

The end of the month has sped up for me as both of my kids are fighting to make it to the State Championships in basketball. They both came out of Districts last week, we have Regionals this weekend, and hopefully State the following week! It's busy...and I LOVE EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF IT! But, … Continue reading February Wrap Up // 2023

January Wrap Up // 2023

January 31, 2023 ~ happiestwhenreading ~ Leave a comment

It has been over six weeks since the temperatures outside have been above 40 degrees. I don't think we've ever had that long of a cold snap that just lasts and lasts and lasts. This has absolutely been the most unusual winter I can ever remember...and we haven't even hit our snowiest, wettest, or coldest … Continue reading January Wrap Up // 2023

Finally a month that left me wanting more! I read mulitple books that were so good - it made choosing a favorite SO HARD! It was a hard decision, and on a given day, it may have been one of the honoranble mentions instead! If you're looking for a book recommendation, you wouldn't go wrong … Continue reading December Wrap Up // 2022

I’ll be finishing the year having read roughly 170 books. So believe me when I tell you that picking the top 10 best books of the year can be really hard! I did it, but I also wanted to take a moment to let you about a few more books that didn’t make my final … Continue reading Honorable Mentions // 2022
